Hollywood New Century

Early in the morning, in the hotel suite, Simon rose sleepily from Sarah Bradna's graceful ketone body.

Looking out the window, it was dawn, and then Sarah Bradner rubbed her eyes and yawned: Dear, it's still early, won't you sleep again?

I made an appointment today, and I'm going to meet you later, Simon said with a smile.

For more than a week, it seems that many German film circles will invite you to banquets. Which company is this time? Sarah Bradner was actually very happy. She followed Simon to some entertainment circle receptions, some in Germany. People in the entertainment industry have also seen it. Although he is only a young model, it is also very beneficial.

I was invited by the big Hollywood star Tom Cruise who was filming 'Operation Hitler' in Berlin, based on a previous German film, Simon said, speaking in Sarah Bradner's pair of larges. Rubbing on his long legs.

Tom Cruise plays Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, the German general who assassinated Hitler in history, and the son of the prototype character does not accept Tom Cruise as his father.

From the preparation to the shooting of Action Target Hitler, it has always been said that misfortunes do not come singly. First of all, the Scientology that Tom Cruise believes in is regarded as a pseudo-religion that only cares about making money in Germany; when the film company chose him to play the historical hero Claus · When Colonel von Stauffenberg, he was criticized by many Germans.

The film was also refused by German authorities to lend out military locations and historical sites for filming. Later, after many efforts, the German government agreed to lend it.

The latest news is that 11 extras were injured in a car accident on set during the filming of Action Target Hitler, Sarah Bradner, of course, knew that Tom Cruise was also filming in Berlin. .

More than that, I heard that many of the films they shot before were scrapped during printing due to some operational mistakes, Simon said with a smile.

Tom Cruise has two films to shoot this year, a low-cost political film Lions in the Mouth has been completed and will be released in November; the other is the military film Action Hitler, The main focus is in June next year, and now it is going to be re-shooted again, and I don't know if it will be released in June next year.

As the current head of Lianmei Pictures, a subsidiary of MGM, backed by Merrill Lynch, the budgets of the two films this year seem to be low.

The budget of Action Target Hitler is less than 80 million US dollars, but it encountered such an accident, which is tragic enough.

Okay, let's fly to Venice together at night, then go directly to Munich, and then I'm going back to the United States, Simon said, getting up from the bed, after all, he is still gambling in the United States, Nancy Davis recently Very nervous, 10x leverage of $1 billion, too exciting.

In Berlin in September, the average temperature is only a dozen degrees, which is actually quite comfortable, and it will get colder in another month.

In a high-end cafe in Mitte, at a table on the second floor by the window, Simon Pike and Tom Cruise sat face to face.

Since the release of Mission Impossible 3, Tom Cruise has been at a low point in his life, and the topics surrounding Tom Cruise are all negative news, his religious beliefs, his marriage, his daughter Suri Wait, what's more important is his feud with former owner Paramount, the blatant criticism of him by Summer Redstone...  

And Tom Cruise's signature American smile and angular face have made the media tired.

Tom, the recent film scrapping of Action Target Hitler shouldn't be too serious, right? Simon asked.

Sure enough, Tom Cruise's signature smile immediately emerged, and he responded: It's a little troublesome. The night scene film shot in the German Ministry of Defense was completely destroyed because of the wrong chemicals used during printing. MGM Helianmei will re-negotiate with the German authorities to obtain the approval of the authorities, and once again enter the Bendler complex, an important historical site in Berlin, to take pictures.

It shouldn't be difficult, it's probably going to take some time, Simon comforted. Once upon a time, Tom Cruise was the existence he looked up to, now!

MGM is operating at full capacity, but next year's summer season should not be able to catch up, Tom Cruise regretted a little. After all, the filming of such historical sites requires reporting and approval at all levels, and it must take a long time.

Tom Cruise is now facing the young Simon Pike before him.

I originally thought that Xinghai Pictures was just an ordinary film company making small noises. I really did not expect the great success of several consecutive films, which shocked Hollywood all of a sudden.

Although ex-wife Nicole Kidman's movies have not been as good as one since she won the Oscar, one Juno has made her earn too much.

Moreover, with the relationship between Nicole Kidman and Xinghai Pictures, Xinghai Pictures will definitely have a lot of cooperation with her in the future.

By the way, Simon, I often hear Lord talking about you, your vision for filmmaking is absolutely genius, Tom Cruise had previously replaced his agent cousin with a CAA veteran, Bo Ryan Lord, as the head of CAA, also gave himself a lot of advice.

To restore his reputation, of course, is to launch a popular movie, and Simon Pike is a good choice.

Lord, I haven't seen him for a long time, but he also mentioned you to me! Simon said, took a sip of coffee, Tom Cruise is a top Hollywood actor, CAA certainly attaches great importance to such customers .

By the way, Simon, now Lianmei Pictures'

The CEO is Paula Wagra. If Xinghai Pictures needs help with distribution, we may be able to provide some small help. You know, Lianmei's distribution system is now under MGM, and we can still use some of it. network of! Tom Cruise of course knows that the most important thing for Xinghai Pictures now is to set up its own distribution network. Although some of the distribution networks that Lianmei can use are not big, they are still useful.

Thank you, Simon accepted in the face of Tom Cruise's favor. In the United States system, those experienced publishers can indeed win in the future.

By the way, DreamWorks is shooting the action comedy Tropic Thunder written and directed by Ben Stiller in Hawaii. You have a cameo in it, right? I've seen your look in the tabloids, it's quite different Yes, Simon said with a smile, after all, Tom Cruise's cameo character was bald and belly, which was very different from the handsome image.

Tom Cruise smiled helplessly. After the photo was leaked, he had entrusted Lushui to issue a lawyer's letter to the newspaper, and they were not allowed to spread it.

Tom, DreamWorks is now owned by Paramount, and the release of Tropic Thunder must be done by Paramount, Ben Stiller's comedy talent is still good, and Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr., The movie can be expected, Simon said, giving Tom Cruise a meaningful look, and continued,

Maybe, Mr. Lei Shidong will also watch this movie! Your role in the movie is that of a Hollywood movie boss, and the insinuated image is also very interesting!

Tom Cruise is also a smart person, and he can't get into a deadlock with Paramount. A tycoon like Summer Redstone wants profit.

Tropical Thunder can get closer to the fans by pretending to be ugly. At the same time, it is also to release goodwill to Paramount. The consequences of being publicly accused by Summer Redstone are indeed very serious and not an actor can bear. , not even Tom Cruise.

Tom Cruise nodded, Simon understood what he meant, and releasing goodwill to Paramount could only be done by himself. After all, the distribution rights for the series Mission Impossible are all in the hands of Paramount.

Simon, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, Tom Cruise's important purpose today is of course this.

There is a chance. When the Mission: Impossible series is restarted in the future, Xinghai can help with funding, Simon smiled. The fourth Mission: Impossible was Tom Cruise's turnaround. Financial The film group after the tsunami is also poor, and Paramount will not have so much confidence.

After all, Paramount in the previous life did not just introduce the funds of David Ellison Sky Dance Pictures to start Mission Impossible 4.
